When John Krasinski Was Afraid of Working With His Wife Emily Blunt
Well, Krasinski isn’t the first person to admit that he is terrified of his wife, but the actor was also nervous working alongside her! Creating the 2018 masterpiece titled A Quiet Place, the film starred John Krasinski and Emily Blunt in the lead roles but the off-screen chemistry between the two was quite comedic.
In an interview with Graham Norton on The Graham Norton Show, Krasinski sat down for an interview alongside his wife to answer some questions. Stating that he had never shared the screen with his wife before, the actor revealed that during the initial days, he was quite nervous about how her on-set behavior would be.
“It was weird because I was very nervous about it, to be honest. I think we both were. Before we started shooting, she said ‘Are you nervous?’ I said ‘I’m terrified’ and she said ‘Oh, good. Me too'”
He further continued.
“I think it’s one of those things where people think because we’re both in the same business, we have the same experiences. But I’ve actually never been on set with her, seen how she worked”
The Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness actor continued about how he had heard rumors that his wife was a total diva on set!

“I’d heard she was a diva and I just can’t get Emily out of her trailer. Stuff like that. But I think what it was is and it sounds really sappy, but it’s true. I think it’s the greatest collaboration I’ve ever had in my career. I’ve never seen her work and when you’re actually in the room and she does what she does, it honestly, it changes the air in the room”
